riscv: Workaround mcount name prior to clang-13

Prior to clang 13.0.0, the RISC-V name for the mcount symbol was
"mcount", which differs from the GCC version of "_mcount", which results
in the following errors:

riscv64-linux-gnu-ld: init/main.o: in function `__traceiter_initcall_level':
main.c:(.text+0xe): undefined reference to `mcount'
riscv64-linux-gnu-ld: init/main.o: in function `__traceiter_initcall_start':
main.c:(.text+0x4e): undefined reference to `mcount'
riscv64-linux-gnu-ld: init/main.o: in function `__traceiter_initcall_finish':
main.c:(.text+0x92): undefined reference to `mcount'
riscv64-linux-gnu-ld: init/main.o: in function `.LBB32_28':
main.c:(.text+0x30c): undefined reference to `mcount'
riscv64-linux-gnu-ld: init/main.o: in function `free_initmem':
main.c:(.text+0x54c): undefined reference to `mcount'

This has been corrected in https://reviews.llvm.org/D98881 but the
minimum supported clang version is 10.0.1. To avoid build errors and to
gain a working function tracer, adjust the name of the mcount symbol for
older versions of clang in mount.S and recordmcount.pl.
